What does it mean to be a Hybrid Agent?

Company Features & Benefits

Whether it is building a team, opening your own branch office, or getting your first assistant, Hybrid supports you and wants to help you succeed. Moreover, we are locally owned. There are NO franchise fees and no corporate pyramid you must hurdle. Have a great idea? Let’s innovate!

Ownership of Your Business:

Hybrid Real Estate Agents are independent contractors. We believe in honoring that independence through freedom in marketing and branding, and by supporting the agent in being unique. Hybrid Real Estate was developed with Real Estate Business Owners in mind. Hybrid Real Estate offers an affordable and sustainable option for independent business thinkers.

Experienced Management:

Hybrid Principal Brokers have both Management and current sales experience, and encourage Hybrid Agents to brainstorm ideas and ask questions. Whether it is revising your business plan or risk management strategies, our Brokers are here, ready to help.

Work Environment:

Hybrid Real Estate strives to be a Green Company. Most Hybrid Agents work from home which allows them to control their work environment and work in the neighborhood they specialize in.

Work Schedule:

Hybrid offers plenty of opportunities to get together with coworkers and retain a sense of company culture. With that said, Hybrid Agents are experienced agents and know what schedule works best for them. There are no time commitments, no mandatory meetings, and no interference. Are you too busy to attend the Broker Tour Meeting to pitch? Awesome! We will go for you!

Brick and Mortar:

While Hybrid makes every effort to be as virtual as possible, the company does invest in “Brick and mortar” for agent ease. Hybrid owns several Professional Customer Care Centers, scattered throughout Lane County, for agent and client use when nearby and plan to add more throughout the state. Hybrid also offers executive office suites to agents and teams that require a more central location.

Business Support

Personal Brands:

Every Hybrid Agent is treated as the individual business owner that they are. This individuality will be promoted to enhance marketability of the agent and/or their team.

Freedom of Advertising:

Hybrid Agents advertise as much or as little as they choose. The Hybrid Model cuts corporate marketing fees and reallocates those funds directly to our agents. YOU determine as a business owner the best use of those funds. Staff is available to assist in advertising development, but agents have complete freedom to market their business as they see fit.

Education:

Hybrid Real Estate is a certified Continuing Education Provider registered with the Oregon Real Estate Agency. Not only do we provide ample educational courses, we also provide Agents with a monthly calendar noting additional educational opportunities offered in the real estate community.

Retired Agent Program:

This program is designed for real estate agents leaving sales due to either retirement or other reasons. This program allows for Agents to keep their license active with the state and continue to refer and receive legal payment for referrals. This program also creates an opportunity for a real estate agent to purchase a book of business, over time, from a retiring real estate agent. It can be difficult to price a book of business or for a real estate agent to produce the required capital to purchase an established book. The Retired Agent Program overcomes these challenges, offering real estate agents continued success in retirement and business acquisition for agents building their client base.

MLS Access:

Not only does Hybrid subscribe to our local RMLS, but to Salem’s WVMLS,the Bend area MLSCO and Southern Oregon MLS as well! Have a multi-million Dollar client looking to purchase in the Bend area? No need to pass! Do some research and pay $50 to join yourself through our company membership.
